On the occasion of the official visit to the United Kingdom by Their Royal Highnesses Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway, British and Norwegian businesses are invited to attend a business summit on the 1 st of March 2023. The royal couple will be accompanied by Minister of Foreign Affairs Ms Anniken Huitfeldt, Minister of Petroleum and Energy Mr Terje Aasland and Minister of Trade and Industry Mr Jan Christian Vestre.

Norway and the United Kingdom are embarking on a green industrial transition with goal of making achieving net zero by 2050. This provides huge challenges and opportunities for our companies.?

Join us for this one-day event where we are bringing together the most impactful, influential leaders and decision makers from both private and public sector to discuss these important topics. Don?t miss the opportunity to learn, explore, and walk away with valuable new opportunities and inspiration. ? ?

We cannot achieve our ambitious goals without strengthening existing partnerships. The shock to the energy markets last year highlighted the need for sufficient and stable energy supplies and markets remain extremely vulnerable. The United Kingdom is committed to becoming a “clean energy superpower” by the end of this decade and Norway has the resources and emerging technologies to support the United Kingdom in achieving its goal. Looking ahead, increased collaboration between researchers, businesses, and governments will need to be developed.?

The United Kingdom and London?s position as the pre-eminent hub for technology and finance in Europe will be important for Norwegian companies as we are accelerating our shift to green technology.

The event will emphasise the significance of policy frameworks, investments, advancement in digitalisation and artificial intelligence and cross-border cooperation between the UK and Norway. The purpose is to support this transition and establish the two countries as front-runners in sustainable energy and industries, while also reducing carbon emissions and strengthening energy security.
